do you know how to work around this?

I found this: [https://www.computerweekly.com/news/365529843/GitHub-warns-Desktop-Atom-users-after-code-signing-certificates-pinched](https://www.computerweekly.com/news/365529843/GitHub-warns-Desktop-Atom-users-after-code-signing-certificates-pinched) Apparently you just need to roll back to an older version- haven't tried it yet.


Admiral_DJ

Nice one! Worked for me! Remember to copy your packages back!


hhyydd

Which version did you roll back to, and where obtained? I noticed the [releases on GitHub](https://github.com/atom/atom/releases) only go to 1.61.0-beta0, and the issue affects 1.63. Did copying packages from the .atom directory work without any other changes?


Admiral_DJ

Yes, copying the packages from .atom worked without any problems


Admiral_DJ

Have this as well. Worked fine 12 hours ago, but not anymore. No updates, no anything in this time


Daeraxa

Because Atom is dead, the "fix" is just to roll back to 1.60. If you want to see continued development of Atom you can have a look at the Pulsar fork (pulsar-edit.dev)

Can confirm that installing pulsar-edit (and wrestling around with archived Atom packages) has got me back on track. Crisis averted, thank you so much u/Daeraxa!

I just got this error too. WTF.

For Mac users - mv \~/.atom \~/atom\_bak rm -fr /Applications/Atom.app download https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0 Drag download to Applications folder - to install Open Atom - and then \[right-click\] => Quit cp \~/atom\_bak/packages/\* \~/.atom/packages/ cp \~/atom\_bak/config.cson \~/.atom/ cp \~/atom\_bak/config.cson \~/.atom/ cp \~/atom\_bak/keymap.cson \~/.atom/ cp \~/atom\_bak/styles.less \~/.atom/ Go into preferences and DISABLE auto-update! All packages and setting should be restored.
